Pride parade in Vietnam
In Hanoi, the Pride parade takes the form of a bicycle rally. This is both innovative and also contextualised to the local sociopolitical condition. The rally is typically led by core teams of cyclists with decorated bicycles, followed by participants’ bicycles or motorbikes wearing marching shirts. The rally is usually about 4 – 5 km long, starts at Giang Vo lake, and ends at a place in the centre of Hanoi, followed by an After Rally party with free drinks and music.
In 2012, the rally started with a group of about 160 people, increased to 300 in 2013 and over 600 in 2014
